As a Nijmegen student, do you want to share your sustainable ideas and ambitions with other enthusiasts? Join our community! You decide how active you are, there are no obligations. From drinks attendants to activity organisers, everyone is welcome. Through our What's App group and physical meetings, you stay in touch with members and get tips for interesting articles, events, documentaries etc etc. Every third Tuesday of the month, you can attend the members' drinks party; it is always linked to a substantive theme. Canopy is supported by the Radboud Green Office.
